    I’ve installed Nexus 3 on My MAC and all good their.
    I’m just wondering if I need to block any IP’s and if I can do that in the hosts file as I don’t have little snitch.

    Using a firewall app and blocking every cracked/patched/warezed software is really the best solution!

    I just posted a download for the Progressive House expansion on the sister site, in the big post. We're almost complete.

    No. Many Hollywood expansions are still missing.

    Which ones are you still missing? They should all be available now, as far as I can tell.

    That's the main one I'm waiting for. I saw a seller on Aliexpress who claimed to have LoFi within the Nexus 3 bundle they were selling.

    Think LO-FI is still missing for example? Studio Production 1? Hardstyle 3? (i think i have seen vol 1 and 2) and missing is also Happy Hardcore?

    Studio Production 1 has just been posted by a user on sister site in the comments. Only Lo-Fi, Hardstyle 3 and Happy Hardcore are left now as far as I can tell.

    You have to be more specific, every tropical house expansion works here.

    My current list I have in my hosts file that I compiled over the last few days from different sources and discussions here and on other sites etc contains these:

    0.0.0.0 147.75.71.186
    0.0.0.0 52.42.114.201
    0.0.0.0 52.70.136.170
    0.0.0.0 54.70.136.156
    0.0.0.0 web.refx.com
    0.0.0.0 auth.refx.com
    0.0.0.0 ec2-52-42-114-201.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
    0.0.0.0 ec2-54-70-136-156.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
    0.0.0.0 ec2-52-70-136-170.compute-1.amazonaws.com

    Explanation of the IP's and sites:

    The first IP in the list is refx.com, the homepage.
    The other 3 are the IP's of the amazonaws links that this cracked nexus calls home to (afaik)
    web.refx.com is called for updates (I think)
    auth.refx.com authenticates and syncs things. Blocking it means that in the nexus log instead of "Sync Upload Failed: likes.csv" etc, it'll show "Can't connect to sync server".


    So keep this all in mind if you have a legit Nexus 3 installed, it might cause it to stop syncing and could create issues refreshing your license/when downloading things in the cloud app if you just copy paste the list above. I'd just like to play it safe for the time being. There's no need for nexus to contact these addresses for my use. I just want to make music after all :P
